Axyome XM

The black box flight recorder for AI-assisted coding.

Axyome XM is a black box flight recorder for AI-assisted coding. Every session is captured as a full forensic trail of the files touched, prompts given, errors hit, commands run and commits made. That gives you traceability from your code back to where it came from: you can see which session changed a file, which assistant (Copilot or Claude Code) made the change, and the prompts behind it. Time Machine replays any past coding day chapter by chapter. Keyword search over your activity and chat history pulls back any moment on demand, and the auto-generated XM Wiki turns your history into a searchable knowledge base.

It looks after the developer

Axyome XM also looks after the developer. Session analytics and the productivity heatmap show your working rhythm: when you reach flow state, how long your sessions run, and when late nights or marathon stretches start adding up. Achievement badges mark your milestones and streaks. There are 54 MCP tools, and Axyome XM is local-first: your activity is recorded and stored on your own machine.
